Secret Lovers (ButtahBenzo)

Chapter 12

Chapter 12: Stay

We were able to cook dinner for us both even though we aren't that much good at cooking. Shay does have a thing in her YouTube channel called Shay's Kitchen where she learns how to make/cook different food. But she doesn't do most of the work.

The chicken was pretty delicious. I sort of learned how to cook chicken when I was younger. I got hungry again even though I already ate earlier. We finished and placed our plates in the dishwasher and cleaned up.

"Well, thanks for dinner." Shay awkwardly says.

"No problem. You cooked it too anyways. So thanks as well." I replied and she was walking to the door with me. It was already 1:30 in the morning. Shay drove pretty far to get here. Our houses are like 1 hour away from each other and she has to drive that long to get there.

"Uhh, can I ask you something?" She suddenly says and stops at my door. "What is it?" I asked.

"Can I stay with you tonight?"

She looked hesitant at first but when she saw me smiling, her face softened. "Of course." I said and she went back in. "Thanks." She says.

We went up the stairs to my room so we could sleep. My bed was so huge that it could really fit 5 people. At least we wouldn't be that close because we're still in an awkward stage. I went to the closet to find some clothes of Shay. She left some in here that's why I was able to find her an oversized t-shirt and shorts. She wore this once when we had a sleepover here.

"Here." I said and handed her the clothes while she started taking off her jacket. I'm going to have to be in this room watching her changing clothes. God help me.

I found myself some clothes as well. A black tank top with pajama pants. I wanted to go to the bathroom to change but I also kind of want to see Shay change. . . But I still went to the bathroom. She stopped me though.

"You don't have to go in there." She said after she placed on her shorts. Taking her shirt off, she got her oversized one and placed it on top of her. I was able to get a glimpse of her toned body. But I looked away quickly and I'm sure I wasn't that obvious. I started changing soon after. Our distance from each other felt close even if she was at the corner of my room and I was near the bathroom which was also in the other corner.

I felt her eyes on me while I was changing. I'm sure she was already done because from the mirror, I see her leather jacket folded neatly on the bed. I looked and saw her eyeing me up and down and she was biting her lower lip. My skin on my cheeks flushed into the color red and I changed quickly now. The tension is too hard to ignore.

I folded my other clothes and went straight to the bathroom to wash my makeup off. When I was done rinsing, I wiped my face and saw her at my back. I gasped and nearly dropped the towel.

"Oh my god! Don't sneak up on me like that!" I exclaim and give her a death glare.

"Sorry, sorry. I just wanna ask where I should put these." She said and looked at her hands carrying her clothes.

"Uh just place them on that table." I said and pointed to an empty table in my room. "I'm just gonna put these in the laundry." I said gesturing to my used ones and she nods and I went downstairs to the laundry.
